All,

What files do I need to copy to my ASP.NET app to get web services to work?
Do I copy the entire Web References directory? Do I need to install the
run-time files on my web server?

Of course everything works on my dev machine, but now when copying the the
pieces to the seperate boxes..... well nothing works.

Thanks
Mike

Deploy the web service like you would any other ASP.NET app. Project>Copy
Project in Visual Studio. Before you do that install WSE 2.0 on the
destination server.

Alternatively, you may also copy the webservices2.dll to the bin folder of
your application if you don't want to install the runtime. However, if you
have more than one app using WSE 2, it's better to install the runtime.

It is *always* better to install the runtime, you should never copy the
WSE2 assembly to a bin directory. Why? Installing the runtime on a
machine registers that the product is installed and means that it can be
detected and upgraded or patched; if you copy the assembly to each web
bin directory, there's no way to simply detect the product and update it.
